CHAPTER 1
Why This Book?
I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things ... Ecclesiastes 7:25
(King James Version – This will be noted as KJV after this notation)
There are more than a few books that address the big questions through either faith or reason. Most are philosophical treatises that require some thought to comprehend. My desire was to address some of the important issues in life in simple terms that anyone can grasp easily. I have always had the ability to break down complex issues into easy to understand language that anyone can grasp.
My hope is to involve you, the reader, in the process as a jury using circumstantial evidence to decide about some of life's great issues. Is God real? Why a Messiah? Is the Godhead a Trinity or separate personages? Why do bad things happen to good people? What is the purpose of life? People have always struggled with these questions.
Since there can never be a definitive answer to God's reality (unless you personally get to meet Him) circumstantial evidence is the best way to come to conclusions. Faith and the promptings of the Holy Ghost is the only way to truly know God, but sometimes it is necessary to find faith. Finding faith can come through reason, which is what this book will help with. Circumstantial evidence is a method of drawing inferences from clues. While an inference may not seem like strong evidence, multiple inferences pointing in the same direction should be considered in shaping a conclusion. Imagine how many murderers would get away with their crimes if we insisted that only direct observation by a multitude of individuals could be used to convict in a felony crime. Very few murderers commit their acts where there is a high likelihood of being caught in the act.
If the police found the murder weapon in someone's home, blood on that individual's clothing that belonged to the victim, a motive for the crime that only the suspect had, the suspect's DNA at the crime scene, and witnesses that came forward testifying that the suspect said he planned to kill that victim you would need to consider the possibility that the suspect was guilty. There can be, of course, extenuating circumstances and we can be thankful for reputable defense attorneys that honestly seek for those circumstances.
When building a case in the following chapters for the subjects above I hope to build a solid case that is convincing. There will no doubt be those who try to refute the evidence as a defense attorney would. If you are that defense attorney I can only suggest that your integrity, your character, and your eternal destiny rest on finding the truth. You will neither gain nor lose assignments or promotions based on the outcome of these cases so, of cour
